Richard: I had to google a list of SW Asia to see what all of them were:
SOUTHWEST ASIA COUNTRIES
1.) TURKEY
2.) CYPRUS
3.) SYRIA
4.) LEBANON
5.) ISRAEL
6.) JORDAN
7.) IRAQ
8.) IRAN
9.) AFGHANISTAN
10.) KUWAIT
11.) BAHRAIN
12.) QATAR
13.) UNITED ARAB EMIRATES ( U.A.E.)
14.) OMAN
15.) YEMEN
16.) SAUDI ARABIA
Have to agree, other than UAE for Dubai, and Turkey for Istanbul (and one other port) , none of those countries are on my wish list for cruising at this time!
